"I'm really sorry it's taken me a while to e-mail you with my experience of meeting Christopher Eccleston at Comic Con in July."

"My name's Jonathan L., who you spoke to on Twitter a few months ago when you were looking for feedback from people that met Christopher Eccleston at Comic Con back in July.

I was just e-mailing to say I'm really sorry it's taken me a while to e-mail you with my experience of meeting Christopher Eccleston at Comic Con in July.

I understand if you're no longer looking for feedback from people that met him at Comic Con. 

I just wanted to say how nice he was and how he put me at ease straight away when I met him, as I don't think I'd ever been as nervous before meeting him.

We spoke for ages about the show, Jodie Whittaker and her companions, Christopher telling me about how he was once in a play with Jodie Whittaker seven years ago. 

He also took a real interest in asking when I became a fan of the show, which was fourteen years ago when it came back, and how old I was. 

He even made a joke about how he'd hopefully come back for Doctor Who's 100th anniversary when he's 99 years old too.

I'd love to see Christopher Eccleston make a comeback to the show for the 60th anniversary in four years time if he's feeling up to making a comeback, as long as he's in the right head space too.

I feel really bad about everything that he went through on the show before, as I never realised he had an eating disorder whilst he was on Doctor Who."
